Usage Examples English
  • This absorption of light in the ultraviolet to visible spectrum can be quantified using ultraviolet–visible spectroscopy, and forms the basis for the entire field of photochemistry.
  • Birds are capable of seeing colors in the ultraviolet range, and some species are known to have ultraviolet peaks of reflectance (indicating the presence of ultraviolet color) on their beaks.
  • Observations in the ultraviolet using International Ultraviolet Explorer detected white dwarfs in some barium star systems.
  • Both visible and ultraviolet light cause photoinhibition, ultraviolet wavelengths being much more damaging.
  • Ultraviolet images have no color since ultraviolet radiation is invisible to human eyes.

  • Ultraviolet-sensitive beads (UV beads) are beads that are colorful in the presence of ultraviolet radiation.
  • Ultraviolet (UV) filters block ultraviolet radiation, but let visible light through.
  • Clay-Jolles worked with her husband during the 1920s studying cosmic rays, radiation in the ultraviolet solar spectrum, and the intensity of atmospheric radiation.
  • Ultraviolet germicidal irradiation is the use of high-intensity shortwave ultraviolet light for disinfecting smooth surfaces such as dental tools, but not porous materials that are opaque to the light such as wood or foam.
  • Photolithography processes can be classified according to the type of light used, such as ultraviolet, deep ultraviolet, extreme ultraviolet, or X-ray.

  • In 1978, the TD1 Stellar Ultraviolet Flux Survey cataloged the ultraviolet flux of unreddened stars down to the 10th visual magnitude.
  • The lens blocks most ultraviolet light in the wavelength range of 300–400 nm; shorter wavelengths are blocked by the cornea.
